Robert the Llama Butcher is garden blogging and remarking on how nice it is to have a fairly drought hardy garden. I definitely agree!
Despite the heat and the fact that many things are already getting bug-eaten, I find I can stare for a long time out the back window or sit on the back deck when the mosquitoes aren't too bad and marvel at the garden that was just scrubby grass and a lot of weeds about a year ago. The flowers seem at almost their very best right now. It's incredibly relaxing for me to look at and be amazed by.

Hey - we have that little bench too. Got it cheap at National Wholesale Liquidators.
We got ours for free as a present from my mom, who got it cheap at a drugstore, I believe.
If it is going to sit outside and fall apart in a few years or less, it doesn't make much sense to pay a whole lot for it.
Beautiful. Just -- beautiful!
Your coneflower is so tall! I love the varying heights and textures.
